Hi,

Has anyone updated to Joomla 5.0 and used CF 7 or CF 8? If so, have you noticed any issues?

Under Joomla! 5 (php8, MariaDB 10)
- I can not save any changes made to CF7 forms.
- when "save Mode" is enabled (Settings/General) I can not edit any CF7 Form.
...grrrr

Hi, same here.I can not save anything...

Joomla 5.5.3 / php 8.1 / CF 7.0.12 / MariaDB 10

Try to hit the Save button with the icon, does it return any errors ?

in general it's recommended to import v7 forms to v8, you can use both of them on the same website
